Why my bride & grooms Love it!
“The bridal suite was perfect for my special day!” – Ashley O, 2021 Bride
I’ve had several brides compliment the newly renovated bride and groom suites. They’ve added new paint, flooring, lighting, and furniture. It’s casual, cozy, and calming.
Their luxurious suites offer opulent furnishings, hair and make-up chairs in the salon area for the brides, a pool table and poker table for the grooms, not to mention flat-screen TVs, WiFi, and full access to the bar. As they say, “Did someone say CHAMPAGNE?” We love when our clients feel right at home.
One bride has said, “I’d move in here if I could,” and we don’t blame her. These suites are amazing! Couples come to The Fountains Ballroom knowing they’ll receive top-notch service and pampering. They feel like they can rest assured knowing the staff will take care of the details.
